Performance of Turbo-SISO, Turbo-SIMO, Turbo-MISO and Turbo-MIMO system using STBC

In this paper, performance of a Turbo coded wireless link is evaluated in the presence of Rayleigh fading for Single-Input Single-Output (SISO), Single-Input Multiple-Output (SIMO), Multiple-Input Single-Output (MISO) and Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system. Turbo encoded and 64-ary Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) modulated data are further encoded using Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) and then split into n streams which are simultaneously transmitted through single transmit antenna for Turbo-SIMO system and n transmit antennas for Turbo-MISO and Turbo-MIMO system.
